Public bug reported: To get the true powersavings mode and GPU switching abilities, I installed kernel 3.12.5, nvidia-331, nvidia-prime on my Ubuntu 13.10 x64bit. I have Nvidia GeForce 310M optimus card. This combination is causing the ambiance to function improperly. If I run gnome-settings- deamon, it gives me the error
(gnome-settings-daemon:5089): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 173 error_code 8 request_code 140 minor_code 30) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
